Who is this senior U.S. official? John Kerry, Joe Biden? I don't see any confirmation of this from any other news sources.
As a Freeper said recently: “Last century I prayed for the conversion or defeat of the godless communist. This century I pray for the conversion or defeat of American liberals!”
All those fools are cheering every inevitable development. They think they are ushering in a new, finally successful, Communist Utopia not realizing that the books those guys are carrying are not Little and Red but read from right to left.
Why "out" a career employee who can still do you even more good over the next sixteen months? They'll out him after he leaves office - if they ever need to.
I did see your #43 (please see my #53 lol)
I understand your approach here and under a different administration, and a president that acts in OUR national interest, that approach would certainly be valid.
On the whole warm water port issue, I believe it is the desire for a *Mediterranean* port that they have been seeking. Using Cuba’s facilities might be nice for vacationing Russian Navy personnel, but so far as force projection, even Moscow knows that the Caribbean is an American lake.
“Dont agree. We still have tactical nukes, last I looked.”
Won’t do any good, 0bama has stated he will NEVER authorize their use.
I thought ISIS and the Saudis are at odds.
With what has been done to the Constitution, Jussein can declare himself President-for Life and get no more than the usual complaints in Congress about “stretching” and “overstepping” and then the Senate will ratify it 98-2.
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Obama will have them fly elsewhere.
Which is why he does not deserve the job he has.
ISIS is fundamentalist Suni. They want to out the Kingdom and establish a religious regime. They have support in SA from those tired of the King and his spoiled family.
True all dat.
However, supply lines are still long for a Mediterranean port. Logistics matters when it comes to force protection. ;-)
CNN is reporting now that the Soviets have begun bombing in Syria.
“Which is why he does not deserve the job he has.”
How do we remove him?
So, we let the Bear just take over this province and that defenseless state?
Ears has been doing that. A bad strategy.
The Bear is still hungry.
I am? If he does, we should compensate Russia and accept them as a partner that they have for 25+ years tried to be.
Obama is just itching for as “international incident” In the meantime....it’s putting our boys at risk. Lousy b******.
Vlad and Bibi met in Moscow last week and agreed on Syria tactics and sharing Intel on attack flights against ISIS. I reiterate, Bibi and Vladimir both hate Obama and ISIS. They are working together here. Vladimir and Bibi get along.
